The Rentsync alternative that's a full property OS.
Rentsync is great at syndicating your listings to 60+ rental sites — but it's not built for collecting rent, generating leases, or doing your T776. You end up duct-taping it to a separate accounting and lease tool. Central Rentals does syndication + the rest in one platform.
